    Exhaust rattle on cold start?

    Update to the above comment: The GM sent me had his Service Manager call me. I filled him in on the details and told him I truly believe the rattle is coming from the exhaust and not the cam phasers or waste gate. He said okay, I'll have the tech look at it with me later today (Thurs). He...

    Exhaust rattle on cold start?

    I escalated the situation a bit and asked to speak the GM. He said he would talk to the tech about it and get back to me. I also asked him (nicely) to consider focusing on the muffler on cold start rather than starting it, sitting in the cab, and immediately say, "yeah, that's cam phasers or...

    TSB #2198 Raptor/Tremor Specific)

    Solid work. Seems to me this is the way it should be done from the factory. I'll take a look at mine tomorrow when I pick it up from the dealer (hopefully with a new muffler instead of the response "the rattle is normal"). Did you just use some 1/4-20 fasteners?

    Exhaust rattle on cold start?

    Anyone in AZ been able to find a dealer that will fix this issue? I've been told twice now and multiple times over the phone that this is "normal." I'm getting rather irritated.

    BlueCruise Refund

    Hey @Big Blue, if I started a new thread with some updated information on the BlueCruise refunds and added a poll, would you make it a sticky? I think it's some useful information and would help us track where our refunds are at. Let me know. Thanks

    Instrument Screen - Audio, Navigation, Phone

    None of those were on my 2019 cluster and none of those are on my 2021 cluster, so I would assume it's a Raptor thing. Maybe @Antho has a Forscan solution to get them on there - if he can't, it probably can't be done.

    Is the market saturated??

    Depends on the math, I suppose. I have no idea what it costs a dealer to keep a car on a lot - probably depends on how much the dealership is leveraged to buy those vehicles, overhead, etc. Either way, let's take a completely random number and say it costs $600/mo or about $20/day to keep one...

    Is the market saturated??

    Look, FRF makes up what percentage of all Raptor owners? 10%? 20%? I have no idea. But there's no chance that the "we have the power to sway ADM by not paying" idea is realistic. For one, a lot of people will say they're down for that, and then justify paying $5k-10k ADM because "it's still...

    Is the market saturated??

    You obviously have no clue how any of this works, so I'm going to inform you. Step 1: Ford produces a vehicle for x cost (x is a variable because it can change with supply - like our current situation) Step 2: Ford wants to make y margin, so they create an invoice price of x + x*y and an MSRP...

    Is the market saturated??

    If you think Ford has the manpower to watchdog all the Ford dealerships in the country, you're delusional. They don't even have the manpower to operate their factories at full capacity. Edit: You do also realize that your logic works in both directions, correct? If Ford has so much control over...

    What ting comes standard on gen3 raptors?

    AZ owner here - do yourself a favor and do ceramic all around. Find a quality installer in your area, and ask him to match to the factory darkness. The factory "tint" isn't actually tint and has no IR or UV protection AFAIK. My guy put one layer of ceramic on the back and doubled on the front...

    Is the market saturated??

    Why do you guys keep saying, "Ford is ******** 'us' over."? Hate to break it to you, but Ford didn't bend you over with ADM...the dealer did, and they don't work for Ford. They work for the dealer. You think dealers at exotic car shops are all employees of Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, etc...

    Rear License plate screws

    Initial guess without taking my off to measure would be 1/4-20 self-tapping hex head bolt. Not sure on the length. Edit: After measuring mine with a tape measure (calipers are on my desk at work), I would say it's closer to a 5/16-18 x 5/8" slotted hex head self-tapping screw, but I can't be...

    Constant power to up fitter switches?

    Sorry no one seems to have an answer for you. I would see if @FordTechOne will chime in - he would probably be the best source for this info. Good luck!

    Forscan to add R Mode & Trail Turn Assist?

    @PandaBoi I got my button installed and made the necessary changes in Forscan to get the buttons to work (with the exception of the R button). I've been chatting with @Antho through PMs, but I will let him update his findings when he's ready.

    BlueCruise Refund

    That's what I was originally going to do, but @Pacific Wheel had a smoking deal on some Methods that I couldn't wait any longer on. So, the refund will just have to go towards something else .

    BlueCruise Refund

    If you received the truck in November, you didn't get the price adjust and will need to wait for the refund. I don't know when they started doing the price adjustment for sure, but I'm fairly sure it was beginning to middle of Q1 2022.

    BlueCruise Refund

    It definitely is - I received my 2021 in Nov. I'm looking for people who didn't get the price adjustment and are waiting for the letter/check in the mail.

    Forscan to add R Mode & Trail Turn Assist?

    If I'm reading that correctly @Keshka , if there is no SRS fault, turning the ignition off and waiting 1 mins is all that I need to do before removing the airbag?

    Forscan to add R Mode & Trail Turn Assist?

    You have any tips for installing the button? Probably have to remove the airbag, then the plastic housing, then it should be whatever electrical connections and 4 screws, correct?

    Forscan to add R Mode & Trail Turn Assist?

    All right guys - got my new steering wheel keypad from the dealer yesterday. Anyone got a write up for installing it? Also, @Antho I'm welcome to be your guinea pig if you still haven't received your part yet. @topgun964 have you made anymore progress on getting the My Mode button to work?
